Erling Haaland's signature is being chased by a number of top clubs, but one in particular could be about to make the first move by offering Borussia Dortmund £170 million (R3.2 billion) to secure his services.
The Norway international is wanted by several top sides around the world, with Manchester United, Manchester City, Barcelona and Real Madrid all among those interested.
It is, however, Chelsea that could be about to make a bold first move for the 20-year-old Bundesliga star by offering Dortmund £170 million for his signature.
The Daily Mail has reported that the former RB Salzburg forward would be open to joining the 2020/21 UEFA Champions League winners, with manager Thomas Tuchel said to be looking to strengthen his attack with a new striker.
Germany international Timo Werner struggled to find his shooting boots during his debut season in England, scoring only 12 goals across all competitions for the Blues in the 2020/21 campaign.
Only six of the 25-year-old's strikes came in the Premier League, although he did manage 12 league assists and 15 overall too.
France forward Olivier Giroud, meanwhile, has been strongly linked with a move to Italian giants AC Milan, while Tammy Abraham's future under Tuchel appears uncertain at this point.
Haaland scored an incredible 41 goals and assisted a further 12 strikes in 41 matches across all competitions for BVB this past season.
